The function g(x, u,▽u) is a non linear lower order term with natural growth with respect to |▽u| satisfying the sign condition, that is, g(x, u,▽u)u ≥ 0.展开更多

Furthermore, the ferromagnetic law takes the form B=μ0μr(|H|)Hi i.e., the magnetizing field H and the magnetic induction B are collinear, but the relative permeability μr is allowed to depend on the modulus of H. We prove the well-posedness of the magnetostatic problem under suitable convexity assumptions, and the convergence of several iterative methods, both for the original problem set in the Beppo-Levi space W1(R3), and for a finite-dimensional approximation. The theoretical results are illustrated by numerical examples, which capture the known physical phenomena.展开更多

In electrochemistry, the oxidation-reduction reaction producing the current is commonly modeled by a nonlinear elliptic boundary value problem. The boundary condition is of exponential type with periodically varying parameters. We construct an approximation by first homogenizing the problem, and then linearizing about the homogenized solution. This approximation is far more accurate than both previous approximations or direct linearization. We establish convergence estimates for both the two and three-dimensional case and provide two-dimensional numerical experiments.展开更多
